Has anyone noticed this about Abigail?
In the old WIAB her last name was Weaver.
In the reworked WIAB her last name was Spencer.
In one line of dialog directly between Leia and Abigail, Leia explicitly calls her Chief Weever.
So what is her real last name?

The visual similarities between characters in Ocean's games are a very confusing thing.
You can never tell if these certain characters look alike because they're related or if it's just the reuse of cg models.
And if you take into account the old WiAB, the confusion becomes even greater.

Just a small question, what's the connection between Summer's Gone and WIAB?
I only see similar models. And of course the same dev, which would explain the similar style..

Same world...same people (some)....connected story.
Well, the young adult Katie from WIAB appears as a middle-aged woman in SG. I'll let you draw the conclusion from there. Anybody with 2 brain cells to rub together should be able to figure that one out.
I have to say, one looked like bella, the other like the crying woman psychiatrist in summer gone. Even the one with 2 colored hair looked familiar. Guess I need to play them directly after each other, to not get confused... Guess it's difficult with only 1 braincell...Well, the young adult Katie from WIAB appears as a middle-aged woman in SG.

I don't blame you. With pretty much every woman in both games capable of winning the Miss Universe pageant, the sensory overload makes it easy to get confused. But the upside is, you have a totally legitimate reason to play them again. Also, pay attention to the names and dialogs, especially in SG, and you'll see lots of name droppings and hints that references back to WIAB.
Now go forth and conquer <your favorite LI>, newbie!

Now just where did I say it's an issue? No, I didn't? Ok good. Now that we are all clear and on the same page, moving right along...Not seeing the issue.....
I read your parentage theories for the last couple of pages and decided to give you my own: Nika is Katie's son and Nami is Zoey's daughter. From the whole book club scene I got a vibe that Katie was there for her own personal reasons, especially from her conversation with Emilia. It seemed like she was about to reveal it but the scene was cut there. I also think that Zoey is dead and that is part of the reason why the kids were not rised by their parents and ended up with Nojiko. Who is the father? I don't have theory on that. It could be Willy or someone else. My theory may be completly wrong but it is fun to speculate when we have to wait for updates.

I thought about the possibility that one of Leia's girls in the club is Najiko.

Interesting theory.
Of course, assuming Nojiko did become Nika and Nami's guardian to protect/shield them - what reason did they need protection/shielding? Is it because of the big I word, something like a criminal turf war, or did their parents really die? What reason are Nika and Nami still being shielded now that they have come of age? What is Nojiko's connection to the characters in WIAB? The other head-scratching element is how many people in SG know the truth (whatever that may be) about Nika and Nami?
Katie definitely had an interest in Nami (and Nika) and it seemed to be her motivation for attending that particular meeting of the book club. An important point to remember about Katie being forewarned is that Nami arranged in advance to attend the meet. Nika attended unannounced at the last possible minute.
If a deceased Zoey Holgerston is Nami's paternal mother, why did the Holgerston family not take in Nami upon Zoey's death?

As I stated in the SG and WiAB theories thread, Scarlett (from WiaB) is Nojiko's old Boss at the hospital. Whether Nojiko was also involved in Scarlett's drug business is unknown, but if Nika and Nami are Zanes, I can see Scarlett asking Nojiko to take care of them if they were in danger.
The fact that Emilio was so interested in Nika is interesting as well.
I assume it's the recycling of models.

Good point about Nojiko/Scarlet.
The impression I got from Emilio (in SG): he was solely concerned with Bella's wellbeing and requested a background check on Nika (MC) purely because of his association with Bella. If he had any other motivation, it wasn't apparent.
ADDENDA - Emilio

Simplest thing is to agree the Noji is shielding them. She's at very least obviously shielding Nika and Nami from knowing the movers and shakers of the town. So she is doing that. The reasons could be parentage, in which case there is deliberated distance chosen by the parents, whether to hide genetics or simply abandoned; compassionate reasons - if their parents are in fact dead, which then branches to accidental death or 'accidental' death for involvement is events we don't know about yet or collateral damage of same events. We still have the scene where Nika mentions remembering his mum reading, so the event wasn't immediate abandonment or purely seeking to hide the children, unless the person Nika remembers is just the first 'foster' parent who wasn't subtle enough and was uncovered. I think we can reasonably assume foul play - but if the parents/first foster parents were taken out deliberately, that left the kids untouched. It wouldn't be hard to notice them being fostered out to Noji, who is known by the movers and shakers - so the kids weren't the target, or it was just an accident.
Long winded way to say - this means that the Zane's probably view the parentage as inconsequential, more like an obligation to palm off. I don't think it's something like Luke and Leia being hidden from the Empire, but it's possible.
If Zoey is Nami's mum, I could understand Katie wanting to see how her girlfriend's daughter was growing up. The Holgerson's had something happen - Stefan is polite and well nice in WiaB. Something made him a jerk, and raised his son to be a jerk - maybe if this theory holds water, Zoey was badly affected by her time with the Zane's and never got her cuddly toys made. Maybe Stefan and Zoey have an argument, and he takes the whole family business, cuts her out. Then the heirloom, could be given to Nami...
This is an excellent theory. Or not a direct boss but part of the hierachy making her life hard. HR isn't anyone's boss directly, but damn they make work difficult to get done. Noji does mention the pressures of work multiple times and the people she has to work with being the problem.
The Emilio thing I think he is suspicious by nature, but it really depends on who Nika and Nami's parent were as to whether they'd be on his radar. Although, with Noji having a history with Katie, the Petrovas, Amber, Emilia, and now Nick (who has connections to the Holgersons via Vanessa (it would be strange Noji isn't on his radar automatically, she's got too many degrees of connection to the Zane's to go unnoticed, so Nika should already be on the radar. It could just be a way to deal with the exposition of the scene.
I originally assumed Nojiko/Nika/Nami, Summer and her family, and Nia simply lived in the western part of the city where they and the ZPR campus are now (Mila: "Where are you two from?" Nika: "We went to a high school way in the west.").
But as people have pointed out, the cabin where Nika and Summer walked to is a six-hour drive away from where they are now. (Nika: "She wants to visit the cabin with me." Nami: "The cabin? The one deep in the woods?" Nika: "Yeah, the one where... you know." Nojiko: "Oh, that's a six hour drive away.")
Thus, the "in the west" wasn't the western side of town, it was another distant town altogether. This suggests Nojiko either got the children the hell out of dodge or she was given care of them partly because she lived so far away. In both cases, those movers and shakers wouldn't notice Nika and Nami being fostered by her.
The Cyrus household rooms in the Summer flashbacks aren't the same house as their current rooms. It's not clear how long after Summer disappeared the Cyrus family moved to their current residence.

True, but now they're back in dodge, going to the uni run by ZPR (maybe some strings pulled?) and Nojis been hanging out with the ZPR royalty Emilia, clearly knows lots about the Zanes, hanging out at a bookclub Katie and Sasha goes to is hardly hiding. Maybe it's safe now, and has been for a while, but why would Noji uproot and go back? The only reason I can assume is because where they lived Nika couldn't get the kind of care required, as he went to the hospital in Wollust with the collapsed lung/violent incident - the implication is he didn't attend all of school because of that, and now is at college - so at some point they had to commute to out west or to visit him at the hospital. Which makes me wonder - how long did Noji work at the hospital? A six hour commute is just not feasible. But if she moved to get out of attention, but kept her job, Nika and Nami would've basically been fending for themselves most of the time with such a long commute. Does this mean her current hospital job is only since moving back? So the Scarlet theory wouldn't work in that case.
We assume the cabin was near where they lived, but what if Summer and Nika had run away? My guess is the cabin is further away than the 'out west' school mentioned. The dream sequence doesn't really give clues in that sense ie things mentioned in dreams aren't necessarily true. Clearly the flowers didn't happen - unless they were the plants we saw in WiaB
and the spiders might now be a memory but a weird conflation of the bug bois in the games they used to play. Dreams are montages at best.So maybe they didn't get out of dodge but went to the outskirts.
